Abstract
A new, compact, broadband printed antenna called the tab monopole is described. The tab monopole is a small antenna designed primarily for applications requiring antennas that can be readily integrated with printed circuit boards. The tab monopole is smaller than a quarter wavelength in size but provides a 2:1 VSWR bandwidth of greater than 50%. Measured S11 and gain patterns are provided
